Diagnostics of Traditional

Chinese Medicine
(International
Acupuncture Textbooks)
 By

Singing Dragon
 The principles and practice of diagnostics are key to administering
effective treatment in traditional Chinese medicine. The ability to
recognise and diagnose symptoms and complaints is fundamental to
deciding on appropriate remedies, and this book provides a
comprehensive introduction to everything that students and
practitioners need to know. The authors outline the key methods
used in diagnosis, and describe the eight basic categories of ailment
and disease: yin and yang, exterior and interior, cold and heat, and
deficiency and excess. They provide detailed instructions on how to
identify and rebalance the relative strengths of pathogens and Qi in
the body, and how to differentiate between syndromes that might
look the same, using traditional Chinese medicine methods. The
book concludes with useful guidance on how to write a case report
following diagnosis. Combining practical instruction with detailed
theory, this authoritative textbook, compiled by the China Beijing
International Acupuncture Training Center (CBIATC), will be an
excellent reference for students and practitioners at all levels.
